I think this patch, continuing the loop after freeing skb, came from
the following discussion:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Zi-vGH1ROjiv1yJ2@zeus/

In such a case, you can use Link: tag with the above URL and mention
it in the change log like "As discussed [1], ...". But this patch
small and clear, so I think the current change log is enough to convey
the intent of the changes without external link.

You may find the following document helpful:

Thanks,
